Norway’s staggering beauty was augmented by stories of our own and fellow traveler’s family histories. Most of us were fortunate to be within memory of generational “sharing” whether by parents, grandparents, and even great grandparents. Almost all of us had the “ties that bind” making this trip both in the present and in our past, my trip of a lifetime.
